Jameson event supports Movember Foundation

Throughout the month of October, Jameson Irish Whiskey, a brand of Pernod Ricard, is gathering its consumers in support of The Movember Foundation, which raises awareness for many men’s health issues. Last year the brand raised more than $400,000. The brand is hosting numerous events nationwide in the hopes of donating even more. On Oct. 5, the brand hosted a cocktail competition at the Fulton Market Kitchen in Chicago and the winner received a $500 donation in their name to the foundation. Posted October 19th.
